One option, why it is like that, is because of tradition. Women's clothes buttoning is the opposite to men's.When we move to the time in history when women were allowed to ride horses, it was probably proper for a lady to ride side saddle- she always rode on the left side. This caused a woman's blouses to come open in the wind. So the blouse was changed to button on the opposite sid, so as not to be obscene.
Personally I think that it is made to simplify our lives- if we have two shirts, that are the same for men and women it is easier to find which one belongs to whom.
